Question 36 through 39;
man:let's say you are geologist,and u want to investigatethe geological
histroy of a place.that is,how did geologists determine things
like...say ..how were the rocks formed? or was an area once under water?if
so,when?how should u about it?
woman:i'd start with stratigraphy.
man:could u explain what this is to the class?
woman:well,stratigraphy is the description of strata in sedimentary rock.i
guess that's not so clear,huh?ok,let's say one of the investigators thought
near a river,for example.well, over the history of the area,every time the
river flooded,it would deposit a layer of sediment all through with
flooded,it would deposit a layer of sediment all through with
floodplain.sometimes a bigger layer,sometimes a smaller,depending on the
size of the flood. well, one layer or stratum gets deposited over
another.obviously these strata built up over millions of years.
Stratigraphy is the study of these layers of deposited settlement.
man:so does that mean if i exmaine each of these strata,i can tell how long
ago each one is deposited?
woman:not necessarily.u see,there might've been some years when the river
didn't flood and no settlement was deposited.you need other kinds of
evidence to tell how much time might've gone by between when one layer got
deposited and one on top of it got deposited.
man:and what are those other kinds of evidence u are talking about?
woman:well,fossils for one.u can determine exactly how old a fossil is and
that's how u can tell how the rock surrounding it is.
man:very good.the discovery of that particular technique is an interesting
story.it was a man named William Smith who first used fossils for the
purpose of dating strata back in the 1800s.let's take a look at how he went
about making this geological breakthrough.
36 what is the discussionmainly about?
36. (A) How rocks are eroded.
(B) How sediment hardens into rock.
(C) How flood plains develop.
(D) How minerals are extracted from rock
答案是a,但文章似乎不是在說rocks eroded的問題,所以我選c

27.
W: I know that you don't really like light theater, but I have an extra ticket for the play at the community theater on Friday night. You won't be interested, would you?

44-47: Question 44-47: listen to part of a talk in astronomy class Today most astronomers accept the notion that groups of stars that make up the universe are all moving farther and farther away from each other. but until very recently this idea of an expanding universe was not a theory most European scholars believed in since ancient times and up to about the17th century most of these scholars thought the size of the universe have remained unchanged since the moment of its creation or perhaps forever, with all the stars remaining more or less in place in relation to each other. but that was challenged in the late 17th century by Izic Newton's idea of gravity as a force of attraction, which contradicted the idea of a university that is static, unchanging. If gravity causes all the stars out there in space to attract each other as Newton said, then they could remain motionless. Sooner or later all the stars will fall in absorb each other. well, scientists then propose a new model, taking Newton's theory into account, they didn't want to abandon the idea of motionless stars, but for this model to work, so the stars won't fall in each other, they had to modify Newton's law of gravity, so they theorize that for distance as large as those between stars, the gravitation force repels rather attracts. As you might guess, this other contradictions. But this is prettily resolved in the past centuries by currently accepted theory, which says the universe is continuously expanding. You'll be reading all about that as your homework tonight.
44: Q: what does the professor mainly discuss?
44. (A) The rate at which the universe is expanding.
(B) How gravity affects a planet's orbit.
(C) Newton's three laws of motion.
(D) Early models of the universe.
答案為b,但我覺得是d耶.因為文中討論gravity似乎不為重點
